We keep our son's bike in the cellar of our aparment building. There's no elevator from the basement level to the ground floor, so I have to carry it up the stairs when he wants to ride it.
It would be much easier if I was taller and I could hoist it higher, but since I'm not, I bump the bike into the steps as I climb up, and it's a struggle every time (The bike is very heavy. Next time we're getting him a titanium lightweight one).
Then one day I was in Vieux Lyon, walking around, taking pictures, and saw this courtyard with beautiful staircase. The bikes are a cute touch, I thought. And it dawned on me.
This building does not have an elevator.
I won't compalin -- at least not about carrying the bike up one flight of stairs -- any more.

Hi Kari!
Are you enjoying the large elevators?
ha. certainly, it can always be worse.
I have a bike parked on our flat. We live on the 30th floor. Luckily, we have an elevator ;-)
ps. love the pic.
■Hi Heidi,
European cities can be difficult to navigate in if you have mobility problem, yes? I'm so glad I've got two working legs!
